      Thanks! I've started working on your backlog of stuff as well, catching myself up. I like that our two S-boat series are similar but just different enough to compliment each other with different ships, locations, and information.

    May favorite anecdote on unrestricted submarine warfare was the trial of Admiral Karl Dönitz, who was being accused of unrestricted submarine warfare as a war crime. US Admiral Chester Nimitz issued a statement in his defense, basically saying, "Hey, we did the exact same thing."

    Even for a video game this is just about the ballsiest attack I've ever seen. You were in that convoy so deep they probably logged you as friendly fire.

    Hell's teeth, what a rollercoaster of genius and insanity rapped up in a blanket of minute to minute action! 😲😯🤯 that was incredible! You must have ball's the size of Greenland! I thought you'd bought the farm on at least a dozen occasions, only to calmly pull back from the brink and plan another audacious attack 😲 the USN wanted aggressive commanders, and by God they got one! That was nothing short of epic, can't wait for the next installment. 👍🍺

    Your video series on Silent Hunter 4 is great. I have learned a lot on the strategy and tactics. I am trying to run the same setup for mods as it looks so good. Can you give the list of mods that you were using? It is not real clear which versions of RFB and RSRDC you were running, and any others that were part of it.
    I know that I am late to the game on this but have found it and love the strategy and feel of the sim.

    11:40 That did not make British merchant vessels combatants. Merchant vessels had the right to protect themselves from attack. Now if the merchant vessels had been sailing around looking for U-boats to sink then they would be combatants.
    Edit: I should also say that U-boats did not had to adhere to cruiser prize rules if the merchant was armed or in a convoy. But if it was an unarmed merchant sailing by itself, sinking it without warning is a war crime.

    • @devinhorner2358
      @devinhorner2358  3 года назад +2

      That was legally correct. There was great debate though over the legal status of merchants carrying "contraband" (ie troops or weapons), and even over what size guns should count as "defensive armament" against frail submarines. Check out the link to the Bailey article link in the description for an interesting discussion on the subject. It was written in the 30s so its almost a contemporary account of the arguments and counter-arguments. academic.oup.com/ahr/article-abstract/41/1/54/60481

    Shame you didn't have a fleet boat with more torpedoes, as badly as you mauled that convoy in an S boat, imagine what you could have done to it with a bigger boat. Even as it is when you get back to port your ratings are going to be bragging in the enlisted's club about how you sunk the whole Japanese navy. In the meantime, I bet those escort skippers commit seppeku after this. It has been a very long night for this convoy, because of the time it takes to set up attacks they probably JUST get started to relax then BOOM! Another hit, plus the shelling, they probably think they have two or three subs attacking them. The brass will be very pleased with this and your crew have to be walking around like they just took all the Viagra.
